ETEA Bridging Program

Published

Hi everyone.. I have a problem.. Hope you can help me with this.. I started applying for ETEA last month, got interviewed via phone last week and now, I already have my letter of offer from them. I was given 7 days to pay for the tuition.. By the way, I am for January 2013 intake..The problem is, my letter of eligibility from AHPRA is due to expire on the 26th of October.. Is it possible to ask for an extension from AHPRA? It is stated in the letter that I need to complete an NMBA approved program within the period given to me.. And now, my offer from ETEA is for January 2013.. :( What should I do? Please help.. Will greatly appreciate.. Thanks RNs! :nurse:

But i heard theres an agency that offers assistance to nurses who are planning to take the bridging program. They will shoulder ALL your expenses. From application to accommodation to allowances.. Then you'll just have to pay them when you get a job there, but of course, with interest.

is that agency located in paranaque? if it is, then i think its the same one i went to last week. I think its a great opportunity, but the interest is so high im not sure if i can pay them off in 2 years.haha

I am not really sure if they offer such. Maybe you can inquire directly from their website. www.etea.edu.au

I already did. The automatic reply was that they will reply within 5 business days. Can you tell me the name of the agency? Maybe its worth checking out. hehe
